Hi there, firstly, I'm not sure if this is the right place to
post this thread, if it is not please move the thread for me and I
apologise in advance.
So here's my story: I have someone from Korea who will be
settling down in Singapore. She's currently 28 years old and holds
a degree in Design (from some Korea university). She will be
graduating from a Japan arts school this coming March.
So my questions are:
1) Are there any trustworthy Korean based companies in Singapore
that are in the Design field? I understand that she can pick up
English (which she is already doing) and join any English-based
companies. However, as a minority in Singapore, I suppose it will
be more comfortable for her. Afterall, she will be settling
down.
The pay is not an issue as she can always take up a part-time
job as a translator or a Korean tutor. Since she majors in Design,
it's best that she does what she's good at right?
2) I've looked up several websites of the Korean community in
Singapore (KoreaTown, SingaporeKorean), however, according to her
(sites are in Korean), they are either outdated (2005) or are just
plainly spam. Therefore my question is, are there any updated
websites which the Korean community in Singapore possibly turn to?
(Such as forums.) These can also be websites that provide help for
them on visa issues and such.
I also understand that there are some Singapore organizations
that can render help to her, however to be honest, I would prefer
Korean organizations because afterall, they should be more willing
and understanding of her situation.
3) Are there any active Korean organizations in Singapore that
supports them? As in, providing help to these Singapore Koreans and
organizing activites (like gatherings during Korea festivals,
holidays, etc)?
Finally, thank you for taking the time out to read this thread.
I also understand that it might not be convenient to post urls to
other forums/websites, therefore, I would gladly welcome you to pm
me as well.
Any help will be appreciated. Thank you and have a nice day.
